Broomfield continues to evaluate methods to reduce operational cost and protect the environment at the Broomfield
Recycling and Education Center. To simplify recycling operations at the center, there will only be four bins to use for
your recyclables. The bins will be designated as follows:
cardboard
newspaper
office paper and junk mail
commingled material
The list of acceptable commingled items provides more details about what materials will
go into the commingled bin.
Other more difficult recyclables such as textiles and
books can also be dropped at the Center.
The reduction in the number of containers will create a cleaner and less
congested site when you drop off your materials. The use of two compactors
will reduce the amount of hauls needed by one-third and reduce our carbon
footprint to protect the environment. Broomfield continues to be committed
to provide excellent services for our community.
Education Center
Broomfield is committed to sustainability for our community. As education for all age levels, classes will be provided to
inform residents of ways to conserve natural resources and protect the environment. Watch for more classes coming in Spring 2010! For more information, contact
Shirley Garcia at 303.438.6329 or email her.
Thank you for your commitment to recycling and to the environment.
